COL. A. +. WALKER.


merce Commissioner.
a special despatch to the Boston Jour-
nal from Rutland says: Colonel Aldace
f. Walker leaves for Washington the first
of this week to assume the duties of the
Office to which he has been appointed.
Col. Walker has been busily engaged this
week in closing up his extensive law bust
ness and in settling his private affairs,
preparatory to taking up his residence at
the capital. The selection of Col Walker
as one of the commissioners gives universal
satisfaction in Vermont. Gov Ormsbee says
that Col. Walker is thoroughly equipped
for the duties of the position, and that in
his opinion he will prove to be one of the
ablest and most sagacious members of the
board, The Supreme Court judges and
such leading members of the Vermont bar
as Judge Poland, Hon. b. f. Flfield OF
Montpeller District. Attorney Kittredge
port, eX-Judge Barrett of Rutland, ex-
Gov. Pingree, Hon Henry Ballard of Bur-
lngton, and H n. S. G. Shurtleff of Mont
peller, who WAS the democratic candidate
for governor in 1854. speak in high terms
of Col. Walkers fitness for the office.
Hon. f.. j. Phelps, our minister to Eng
land, warmly Endorsed Col. Walker for
the place. Minister Phelps wrote to Col.
Walker that lie had persistently refused
10 recommend any person to the president
for appointment since he had been abroad,
but that, on account of Col. Walkers high
character and ability, and because of his
belief that Walker would make a valuable
member of the commission, he should
make an exception to this rule and recon-
mend him for the place. Col. b. b.
Smalley of Burlington, secretary of the
democratic national committee, said that
il Il republican had to be appointed from
New England, Walker was as good a
man as could he found for the place. 1t is
understood that Senator Edmunds wrote
a letter to Mr.. Walker expressing his
wish that he might be appointed on the
board. This letter was sent to the presi-
dent with other papers. Shortly before
the appointments were announced Presi-
dent Cleveland sent for Senator Edmunds
TO come to the White House to confer
with him regarding the selection of Col
Walker AS one OF the commissioners
Senator Edmunds commended his former
law student to the favorable considera-
ton of the president and warmly Endorsed
him for the Office. Col. Walker was APP
pointed on the day of the interview.

Calling on the Railroad Commissioner,

From the st. Johnsbnry Republican,
AS most of our people know, the Lake
and burlington and Lamoille roads do
not bill freight over each others roads.
Merchandise from Burlington for all
points this side of Cambridge junction is
shipped first to Maquam and thence for
warded to its destination. The Burling-
ton wholesale merchants are this week
circulating petitions at all points along
the line, calling upon the Board of Rail
road Commissioners to take action in the
matter w. w. Walker, of the we'll
known Burlington wholesale grocery
house of o. j. Walker & Bros, has been
circulating the petition in ST. Johnsbury.
For obvious reasons it was not signed
very largely here.

THE SITUATION.

The tension in our public affairs
still continues, and wishes are ex-
pressed on all sides for restoration
of confidence. Not, be it under
stood, that there is any desire or
disposition to let matters rest, with
out completing the work inaugu-
rated and successfully advanced so
far. On the other hand, there is a
fixed and unyielding determination
ON the part of the people not to
relax one iota until the affairs of
the country, as between the King
and the People, are settled on a firm
and stable basis. 1t is we'll known
to all who have lived on the islands
Tor few years, that the rights of
the people have been repeatedly in
frlnged upon, and that when they
have on several occasions made a
little demonstration, the King has
made promises which have soon been
ignored. This time the people
are thoroughly and unanimously
aroused, and have once and for
ever made up their minds TO have
matters so fixed that they cannot be
ignored in the future. Half mea-
sures are OF no avail, and no half
measures will satisfy.
Things in general in the town had
apparently resumed their usual
condition when the business estab-
ilshments opened this morning, ex-
cept that the liquor saloons still re-
manned closed. At about the mid
die of the forenoon, however, a buzz
passed around among people in the
streets, and it was rnmored that the
Honolulu Rifle Company had been
suddenly ordered under arms. Mem
bers of the company were seen
quickly disappearing in civilian
clothes and in brief period again
reappearing in uniform. Precisely
the reason of the ordering out is not
fully known to us. Mr.. W. M.
Gibson and Mr.. T. Hayselden were
removed, for safe-keeping, to Oahu
Jail. The Rifles in short time re-
turned to their regular avocations, |
but it is understood they hold them
selves in readiness to report for duty
at brief notice.

All the inter-island steamers have

morrow.

signed the following agreement under protest,

Owing to being behind with our cracker orders on
